FILE - In this Feb. 17, 2010 file photo, former Aris' head coach Hector Cuper of Argentina, gives instructions to his players during a Greek League soccer match in Thessaloniki, Greece. The Egyptian Football Association announced on Monday, March 2, 2015 that they have appointed Cuper as the new manager of its national team. The 59-year old previously led the Emirati al-Wasl club, and the Spanish Racing de Santander. Egypt's team has been without a fulltime manager since American Bob Bradley quit in late 2013 after he failed to take the Pharaohs to the World Cup in Brazil. Egyptian soccer suffered a massive setback when more than 70 soccer fans were killed in post-match violence in 2012. Last month, 20 fans died in a stampede outside a stadium as police fired tear gas.
